Protest BBC – bias against Palestinian Hunger Strikers

Analysis of 21 million articles on the BBC website over the last six months showed NO results for Palestinian Hunger Strikers Samer Issawi (160+days) or Ayman Sharwarna (180+days). Yet in the same period the BBC happily covered hunger-strikers in Bahrain and China; they also reported Gilad Shalit, the Israeli soldier hostage released from Gaza in October 2011, over a thousand times!
